Gommer Challenge

Your next challenge in Goms.

The Gmmer Challenge ist set to start on 1 December

Take on the Gommer Challenge – who will log the most laps.

The Gommer Challenge offers three exciting stages with attractive prizes. New this season: Each stage is supported by a sponsor. The participant who completes the respective stage the most times wins the grand prize. The Gommer Challenge provides the perfect opportunity to take on a sporting challenge and compete with other cross-country skiing enthusiasts. Whether in the classic style or skating, participation in the challenge is free and open to all. However, a valid trail pass is required. All three stages start at the Nordic Center in Goms. With varying course lengths and difficulty levels, there is a suitable route for cross-country skiers of all skill levels, from beginners to professionals. This winter season, it's not about speed, but the number of runs: The participant who completes a stage the most times wins. Each participant can only win once; if they win again, the runner-up moves up.
